FIELD OF THE DISCLOSURE

The present disclosure relates generally to a touch device and the sensing module thereof, and particularly to an add-on touch device and the sensing module thereof applicable to displays of various sizes.

BACKGROUND OF THE DISCLOSURE

With the continuous progress of technologies, displays have evolved from traditional displays to liquid crystal displays or even touch displays. General liquid crystal displays need at least an input device, such as keyboard or mouse, to control the pointer on displays and perform clicking or typing operations. For touch displays, no mouse is required. A user can control the pointer and type by touching displays directly. Thanks to the omission of input devices, the space occupied by computers is reduced; the location for placing computers will be less limited. In addition, due to their simple operational methods, touch displays are easier and friendlier for the elderly and children.

Nonetheless, no matter resistive or capacitive touch displays, many components, including touch panels and touch control chips, are required. Unfortunately, the components described above are costly. Besides, modern computers have already equipped with displays. If the original undamaged displays are replaced directly by touch displays, the cost will be expensive; it is also wasting resources and against the trend of environmental protection. Thereby, there is an add-on optical touch screen in the market. The add-on optical touch screen is disposed on a current liquid crystal display and thus enabling a general liquid crystal to have touch functions.

The size of the add-on optical touch screen described above is fixed and unadjustable, making it applicable only to displays of a single size. As the display is changed to another size, a new add-on optical touch screen has to be purchased. Moreover, because the size of current add-on optical touch screens becomes larger as the display size increases, they will occupy a large space for storage.

SUMMARY

An objective of the present disclosure is to provide an add-on touch device and the sensing module thereof, which can contract or enlarge according to the size of displays for fitting displays of various sizes. In addition, while storing, the volume of the add-on touch device can be shrunk for reducing the occupied space.

Another objective of the present disclosure is to provide an add-on touch device and the sensing module thereof, which have simple structures for achieving the effect of easy assembling.

The plurality of sensing modules and the plurality of fixing modules are connected by at least a reflective connector, forming a touch area. The touch area corresponds to a display area of the display; and the plurality of optomechanical components face to the touch area.

The present disclosure further provides an add-on touch device applied to a display and comprising at least four sensing modules disposed on the four edges of the display. Each sensing module includes an optomechanical component. The plurality of sensing modules are connected by at least a reflective connector, forming a touch area. The touch area corresponds to a display area of the display; and the plurality of optomechanical components face to the touch area.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

In order to make the structure and characteristics as well as the effectiveness of the present disclosure to be further understood and recognized, the detailed description of the present disclosure is provided as follows along with embodiments and accompanying figures.

The size of the add-on optical touch screen according to the prior art is fixed and unadjustable according to the display size, therefore add-on optical touch screens of various sizes have to be purchased for fitting different display sizes. Moreover, because the size of add-on optical touch screens cannot be adjusted, as their size increases, the volume increases accordingly, and thus requiring more space for storage. Thereby, the present disclosure provides an adjustable add-on touch device for solving the above problems.

Please refer to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, which shows a schematic diagram and a usage status diagram of the add-on touch device according the first embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in the figures, the present embodiment provides an add-on touch device 1, which comprises two sensing modules and two fixing modules. For simplicity, the two sensing modules are named as the first sensing module 10 a and the second sensing module 10 b, respectively; the two fixing modules are named as the first fixing module 11 a and the second fixing module 11 b, respectively. The first sensing module 10 a, the second sensing module 10 b, the first fixing module 11 a, and the second fixing module 11 b are disposed on the four edges 21 of a display 2. The four edges 21 of the display 2 refer to the region between the four borders 20 of the display 2 and the borders 221 of a display area 22. In addition, the first sensing module 10 a according to the present embodiment is located at the upper right corner 23 of the display 2; the first fixing module 11 a is located at the bottom right corner 23 of the display 2; the second fixing module 11 b is located at the bottom left corner 23 of the display 2; and the second sensing module 10 b is located at the upper left corner 23 of the display 2.

Furthermore, the first sensing module 10 a, the first fixing module 11 a, the second fixing module 11 b, and the second sensing module 10 b are connected by a reflective connector 12 and forming a touch area 13. The touch area 13 corresponds to the display area 22 of the display 2. The touch area 13 covers the display area 22, which means that the area of the touch area 13 is greater than or equal to that of the display area 22. Basically, the plurality of sensing modules and the plurality of fixing modules are disposed at the four corners 23 of the display 2, so that the touch area 13 formed by connecting the plurality of sensing modules and the plurality of fixing modules covers the display area 22. The number of the sensing modules or the fixing modules of the add-on touch device 1 can be increased and the added sensing modules or the fixing modules can be disposed between the plurality of sensing modules and fixing modules at the four corners 23.

Please refer to FIGS. 3, 4, and 5, which show a three-dimensional view of the sensing module, a schematic diagram inside the add-on touch device, and another usage status diagram according the first embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in the figures, the first and second sensing modules 10 a, 10 b have an optomechanical component 100, respectively. The two optomechanical components 100 of the first and second sensing modules 10 a, 10 b face to the touch area 13. When a user touches the display area 22 of the display 2 in the touch area 13, the two optomechanical components 100 of the first and second sensing modules 10 a, 10 b sense the touch location of the user in the display area 22 and generate at least a sensing signal to a computer (not shown in the figure). Then the computer controls the content displayed on the display 2 according to the sensing signal.

In the following, the structures of the sensing modules and the fixing modules will be described in details. The structures of the first and second sensing modules 10 a, 10 b are identical. Hence, the first sensing module 10 a is used for description. The first sensing module 10 a comprises a housing 101, which has a first surface 1011, a second surface 1012, and a sidewall 1013. The sidewall 1013 is located between the first and second surfaces 1011, 1012. The second surface 1012 has at least a fixing member 14. The housing 101 is disposed on the edge 21 of the display 2 via the fixing member 14. According to the present embodiment, a plurality of fixing members 14 are disposed on the second surface 1012 of the housing 101. Each fixing member 14 is a sucker attached to the edge 21 of the display 2 for disposing the first sensing module 10 a to the edge 21 of the display 2, as shown in FIG. 5. Alternatively, a single fixing member 14 can be adopted as well. The fixing member 14 can be a screw, a rivet, re-attachable glue, or other devices capable of disposing the housing 101 on the edge 21 of the display 2. The details will not be described further.

The housing 101 has a first side 1015 and a second side 1016. The extension direction of the first side 1015 of the housing 101 according to the present embodiment intersects with and is perpendicular to that of the second side 1016 of the housing 101. The sidewall 1013 on the first side 1015 has a first opening 10131; the sidewall 1013 on the second side 1016 has a second opening 10132; the sidewall 1013 between the first and second sides 1015, 106 has a third opening 10133. The housing 101 contains an accommodating space 1017. The optomechanical component 100 is disposed inside the housing 101 and located in the accommodating space 1017. A sensing end of the optomechanical component 100 corresponds to the third opening 10133 for exposing the transmitting end and the sensing end of the optomechanical component 2 for sensing.

Please refer to FIG. 6, which shows a schematic diagram of the fixing module according the first embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in the figure, the difference between the structures of the first fixing module 11 a and the first sensing module 10 a is that the first fixing module 11 a does not contain the optomechanical component 100. Thereby, it is allowable that the fixing module does not include the third opening 10133 of the first sensing module 10 a. Alternatively, the first fixing module 11 a can use the housing 101 of the first sensing module 10 a directly and include no optomechanical component in the housing 101. The details will not be described further. Accordingly, the first fixing module 11 a according to the present embodiment also comprises a housing 111, which also has a first surface 1111, a second surface 1112, and a sidewall 1113 located between the first and second surfaces 1111, 1112. The second surface 1112 of the housing 111 also has at least a fixing member 14. A first opening 11131 is located on the sidewall 1113 of a first side 1115 of the housing 111; and a second opening 11132 is located on the sidewall 1113 of a second side 1116 of the housing 111.

Please refer to FIG. 2 again. When the first sensing module 10 a, the second sensing module 10 b, the first fixing module 11 a, and the second fixing module 11 b are disposed on the four edges 21 of the display 2, the first side 1015 of the first sensing module 10 a at the upper right corner 23 of the display 2 corresponds to the second side 1116 of the first fixing module 11 a at the bottom right corner 23 of the display 2; the first side 1115 of the first fixing module 11 a at the bottom right corner 23 of the display 2 corresponds to the second side 1116 of the second fixing module 11 b at the bottom left corner 23 of the display 2; the first side 1115 of the second fixing module 11 b at the bottom left corner 23 of the display 2 corresponds to the second side 1016 of the second sensing module 10 b at the upper left corner 23 of the display 2; the first side 1015 of the second sensing module 10 b at the upper left corner 23 of the display 2 corresponds to the second side 1016 of the first sensing module 10 a at the upper right corner 23 of the display 2. Thereby, the first sides 1015, 1115 of the sensing module or the fixing module correspond to second sides 1016, 1116 of the neighboring sensing module or fixing module; the second sides 1016, 1116 of the sensing module or the fixing module correspond to first sides 1015, 1115 of the neighboring sensing module or fixing module. Moreover, the two third openings 10133 of the first and second sensing modules 10 a, 10 b according to the present embodiment face to the display area 22 of the display 2 for making the sensing ends of the two optomechanical components 100 inside the first and second sensing modules 10 a, 10 b face to the display area 22. Thus, the two optomechanical components 100 can sense the display area 22.

Please refer again to FIG. 4. The reflective connector 12 according to the present embodiment has a first end 121 and a second end 122. The first end 121 of the reflective connector 12 is fixed in the housing 101 of the first sensing module 10 a; the second end 122 of the reflective connector 12 passes and exits the first opening 10131 of the housing 101 of the first sensing module 10 a, enters the second opening 11132 of the housing 111 of the first fixing module 11 a, and then passes and exits the first opening 11131 of the housing 111 of the first fixing module 11 b. Next, likewise, the second end 122 of the reflective connector 12 passes through the second opening 11132 and the first opening 11131 of the housing 111 of the second fixing module 11 b sequentially. Finally, the second end 122 of the reflective connector 12 enters the second opening 10132 of the housing 101 of the second sensing module 10 b and is fixed in the second sensing module 10 b for forming a touch area 13 corresponding to the display area 22 of the display 2. Because the first and second sensing modules 10 a, 10 b according to the present embodiment are both disposed on the upper edge 21 of the display 2, the two optomechanical components 100 in the first and second sensing modules 10 a, 10 b emit a sensing light source towards the bottom left and the bottom right directions of the display 2, respectively. Thereby, the reflective connector 12 needs to surround the left edge 221, the bottom edge 221, and the right edge 221 of the display area 22 only for reflecting the sensing light sources and avoiding dissipation of the plurality of sensing light sources due to scattering. Accordingly, it is allowable that the reflective connector 12 according to the present embodiment does not run from the second sensing modules 10 b to the first sensing module 10 a. Alternatively, the second end 122 of the reflective connector 12 can pass the second opening 10132 and the first opening 10131 of the housing 101 of the second sensing module 10 b sequentially and be fixed in the second opening 10132 of the housing 101 of the first sensing module 10 a, namely, running from the second sensing module 10 b to the first sensing module 10 a, for forming the touch area 13 and surrounding the display area 22. In this way, the scattering dissipation of the sensing light sources generated by the two optomechanical components 100 of the first and second sensing modules 10 a, 10 b can be avoided even well.

The length of the reflective connector 12 is greater than the sum of a first shortest distance d1 between first sensing module 10 a and the first fixing module 11 a, a second shortest distance d2 between the first fixing module 11 a and a second fixing module 11 b, and a third shortest distance d3 between the second fixing module 11 b and the second sensing module 10 b. Thereby, the reflective connector 12 can run from the first sensing module 10 a, by way of the first fixing module 11 a and the second fixing module 11 b, and to the second sensing module 10 b sequentially. The sum of the first shortest distance d1, the second shortest distance d2, and the third shortest distance d3 is equivalent to the sum of the lengths of the left border 221, the bottom border 221, and the right border 221 of the display area 22. Thereby, as the size of the display 2 increases, the display area 22 of the display 2 increases accordingly. If the sum of the lengths of the left border 221, the bottom border 221, and the right border 221 is greater, the sum of the first shortest distance d1, the second shortest distance d2, and the third shortest distance d3 will be greater. Thereby, a longer reflective connector 12 should be reserved, so that the length of the reflective connector 12 can be adjusted according to the size of the display 2. As a consequence, the add-on touch device 1 according to the present embodiment can be adjusted according to the size of the display 2.

In order to make the add-on touch device 1 according to the present embodiment adjustable according to the size of the display 2, the unused reflective connector 12 should be stored in the sensing module or the fixing module. The housings 101 of the first sensing module 10 a and the second sensing module 10 b according to the present embodiment further comprise a scroll member 19, respectively. The first end 121 of the reflective connector 12 is fixed at the scroll member 19 inside the housing 101 of the first sensing module 10 a; the second end 122 of the reflective connector 12 is fixed at the scroll member 19 inside the housing 101 of the second sensing module 10 b. The scroll members 19 in the first and second sensing modules 10 a, 10 b can scroll and store the unused reflective connector 12 manually or automatically and stretch the reflective connector 12 between the first sensing module 10 a, the first fixing module 11 a, the second fixing module 11 b, and the second sensing module 10 b.

Please refer to FIG. 7, which shows a schematic diagram of storing the add-on touch device according the first embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in the figure, when the add-on touch device 1 according to the present embodiment is not in use, the first sensing module 10 a, the second sensing module 10 b, the first fixing module 11 a, and the second fixing module 11 b are disassembled from the display 2, the two scroll members 19 of the first sensing module 10 a and the second sensing module 10 b scroll the reflective connector 12, drawing close the first sensing module 10 a, the second sensing module 10 b, the first fixing module 11 a, and the second fixing module 11 b, shrinking the volume of the add-on touch device 1, and reducing the occupied space when the add-on touch device 1 is stored.

Please refer to FIG. 8, which shows a schematic diagram inside the add-on touch device according the second embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in the figure, the difference between the present embodiment and the first one is that, according to the present embodiment, the scroll member 19 is disposed in the housing 101 of the first sensing module 10 a only. The first end 121 of the reflective connector 12 is fixed at the scroll member 19; the reflective connector 12 rolls up at the scroll member 19; the second end 122 of the reflective connector 12 is fixed at the second opening 10132 of the housing 101 of the second sensing module 10 b. Besides, the second end 122 of the reflective connector 12 further includes a block member 123 located at the second opening 10132 of the second sensing module 10 b for preventing the second end 122 of the reflective connector 12 from coming off the second opening 10132 of the second sensing module 10 b. Alternatively, the scroll member 19 can be disposed in the housing 101 of the second sensing module 10 b. The second end 122 of the reflective connector 12 is fixed at the scroll member 19; the reflective connector 12 rolls up at the scroll member 19; the first end 121 of the reflective connector 12 is fixed at the first opening 10131 of the housing 101 of the first sensing module 10 a. Besides, the first end 121 of the reflective connector 12 further includes a block member 123 located at the first opening 10131, which means that the scroll member 19 can be disposed in one of the plurality of sensing modules. Thereby, the unused reflective connector 12 rolls up in the sensing module having the scroll member 19 for stretching the reflective connector 12 pass through the plurality of sensing modules and the plurality of fixing modules.

Please refer to FIG. 9, which shows a schematic diagram inside the add-on touch device according the third embodiment of the present disclosure. As show in the figure, the two sensing modules and the two fixing modules according to the first embodiment are connected in series using a single reflective connector 12. According to the present embodiment, the two sensing modules and the two fixing modules are connected using a plurality of reflective connectors 12. That is to say, the first sensing module 10 a is connected with the first fixing module 11 a using a reflective connector 12; the first fixing module 11 a is connected with the second fixing module 11 b using a reflective connector 12; and the second fixing module 11 a is connected with the second sensing module 10 a using a reflective connector 12.

According to the present embodiment, the first sensing module 10 a, the second sensing module 10 b, the first fixing module 11 a, and the second fixing module 11 b all include the scroll member 19 and the reflective connector 122. Here, the first sensing module 10 a is taken for example. The first end 121 of the reflective connector 12 of the first sensing module 10 a is fixed at the scroll member 19 of the first sensing module 10 a. The reflective connector 12 rolls up at the scroll member 19. The second end 122 of the reflective connector 12 passes and exits the first opening 10131 of the first sensing module 10. The second end 122 of the reflective connector 12 include the block member 123. As the reflective connector 12 of the first sensing module 10 a is connecting to the first fixing module 11 a, the reflective connector 12 is pulled out from the first sensing module 10 a. The block member 123 of the reflective connector 12 is connected to and blocked at the second opening 11132 of the first fixing module 11 a. The length of the reflective connector 12 is adjusted according to the shortest distance between the first sensing module 10 a and the first fixing module 11 a when they are fixed on the edges of the display. The connections of the scroll members 19 in the first fixing module 11 a, the second fixing module 11 b, and the second sensing module 10 b with the reflective connectors 12 are the same as the connection of the scroll member 19 in the first sensing module 10 a with the reflective connector 12. Hence, the details will not be described again. Furthermore, the connection between the first fixing module 11 a and the second fixing module 10 b, the connection between the second fixing module 11 b and the second sensing module 10 b, and the connection between the second sensing module 10 b and the first sensing module 10 a are the same as the connection between the first sensing module 10 a and the first fixing module 11 a. Thereby, their details will not be described either. In addition, according to the present embodiment, the second sensing module 10 b is connected with the first sensing module 10 a.

Please refer to FIG. 10, which shows a schematic diagram inside the add-on touch device according the fourth embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in the figure, the difference between the present embodiment and the third embodiment is that the two fixing modules according to the present embodiment are replaced by sensing modules 10. In other words, the add-on touch device 1 according to the present embodiment has four sensing modules 10. The structure of the sensing modules 10 according to the present embodiment is identical to the structure of the first sensing module 10 a according to the third embodiment. Hence, the details will not be described. The add-on touch device 1 according to the present embodiment adopts four sensing modules 10. When the four sensing modules 10 are disposed at the four corners, the two optomechanical components 100 in the two sensing modules 10 located at the bottom left and bottom right corners of the display will generate sensing light sources emitting towards the upper right and upper left directions of the display. Thereby, the reflective connector 12 in the sensing module 10 at the upper left corner of the display is connected to the sensing module 10 at the upper right corner of the display for forming the closed touch area 13 and avoiding reduced sensing accuracy of the sensing light sources generated by the plurality of optomechanical component 100 of the plurality of sensing modules 10 due to scattering. Alternatively, the add-on touch device 1 according to the present embodiment can adopt a single reflective connector 12 for connecting the plurality of sensing modules 10 like the second embodiment. The details will not be described again.

Please refer to FIG. 11, which shows a usage status diagram of the add-on touch device according the fifth embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in the figure, the difference between the present embodiment and the previous one is that the add-on touch device 1 according to the present embodiment adopts a single sensing module 10 only. The add-on touch device 1 according to the present embodiment has four fixing modules 11 disposed on the four edges 21 of the display 2 and located on the four corners 23 of the display 2, respectively. The sensing module 10 is disposed between the fixing module 11 located at the upper right corner 23 of the display 2 and the fixing module 11 located at the upper left corner 23 of the display 2. Then the sensing module 10 uses a reflective connector 12, together with the plurality of fixing modules 11, to form a touch area 13. In addition, the sensing module 10 is disposed at the center position between the fixing module 11 located at the upper right corner 23 of the display 2 and the fixing module 11 located at the upper left corner 23 of the display 2, so that the sensing range of the sensing module 10 can cover the touch area 13, thus sensing the position in the display area 22 of the display 2 touched by a user in the touch area 13. The structure of the sensing module 10 according to the present embodiment is almost identical to the structure of the sensing module 10 according to the first embodiment. The difference is that the extension directions of the first side 1015 and second side 1016 of the sensing module 10 according to the first embodiment are perpendicular; the extension directions of the first side 1015 and second side 1016 of the sensing module 10 according to the present embodiment are parallel. Hence, the details of the sensing module 10 will not be described further.

Please refer FIG. 12 and FIG. 13, which show a three-dimensional view of the add-on touch device and a schematic diagram of the sensing module according the sixth embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in the figures, the difference between the present embodiment and the first embodiment is that the plurality of sensing modules 10 and the plurality of fixing modules 11 according to the present embodiment have at least a positioning member 15. In the following, the sensing module 10 will be used for description. The positioning member 15 is disposed on the second surface 1012 of the housing 101 of the sensing module 10 and located on one side of the fixing member 14. The positioning member 15 according to the present embodiment comprises a fixing board 151 and a positioning board 152. The positioning board 152 is disposed on one side of the fixing board 151 and perpendicular to the fixing board 151; the fixing board 151 is disposed on the second surface 1012 of the housing 101. The positioning board 152 projects from the second surface 1012 of the housing 101 towards the outer side of the housing 101 and is close to the sidewall 1013 located between the first side 1015 and second side 1016 of the housing 101. In addition, the surface of the positioning board 152 is parallel with the sidewall 1013 between the first and second sides 1015, 1016.

Please refer to FIG. 14, which shows a usage status diagram of the add-on touch device according the sixth embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in the figure, as the sensing module 10 is disposed on the edge 21 of the display 2, the fixing members 14 on the second surface 1012 of the housing 101 of the sensing module 10 are fixed on the edge 21 of the display 2; the positioning board 152 of the positioning member 15 presses against the border 20 of the display 2 for positioning the sensing module 10 on the edge 21 of the display 2. The positioning board 152 of the positioning member 15 further includes a fixing part 1521. According to the present embodiment, the fixing part 1521 is a fixing hole. When the positioning board 152 presses against the border 20 of the display 2, a lock member (not shown in the figure) can used for passing through the fixing part 1521 and being locked on the border 20 of the display 2, and thus fixing the sensing module 10 to the display 2.

Please refer again to FIG. 13. The width of the edge 21 of the display 2 is greater or smaller than the width or length of the housing 101 of the sensing module 10. Thereby, the position of the positioning board 152 of the positioning member 15 has to be adjusted. The second surface 1012 of the housing 101 of the sensing module 10 further includes a sliding groove 1019 and a limiter 16. The fixing board 151 of the positioning member 15 is disposed in the sliding groove 1019, so that the positioning member 15 can move linearly towards the outer side of the housing 101 for pressing against the border 20 of the display 2. The limiter 16 is disposed in the sliding groove 1019. The fixing board 151 of the positioning member 15 has a limiting groove 153 corresponding to the limiter 16.

In addition, the fixing board 151 and the positioning board 152 of the positioning member 15 include a first pivot part 1511 and a second pivot part 1522, respectively. The second pivot part 1522 of the positioning board 152 can be pivoted at the first pivot part 1511 of the fixing board 151 for enabling the positioning board 152 to rotate with respect to the fixing board 151. Thereby, while using the sensing module 10, the positioning board 152 can be perpendicular to the fixing board 151 for pressing against the border 20 of the display 2. While disassembling the sensing module 10 from the display 2, the positioning board 152 rotates towards the fixing board 151, so that the positioning board 152 can cover the fixing board 151 and be stored in the sliding groove 1019 of the housing 101. As a consequence, the volume of the sensing module 10 is shrunk, saving the space for storage. The positioning member 15 and the limiter 16 can be disposed on the second surface 1112 of the housing 111 of the fixing module 11 as well. The second surface 1112 of the housing 111 of the fixing module 11 also includes a sliding groove 1119. The positioning member 15 is disposed slidably in the sliding groove 1119, as shown in FIG. 12. The detailed structures of the positioning member 15 and the limiter 16 will not be described further here.

The user can observe the inspection result of the level inspection device 17 through the fourth opening 10134 and judges if the disposal position of the sensing module 10 is correct according to the inspection result. When the sensing module 10 is disposed on the edge 21 of the display 2, as shown in FIG. 14, the sidewall 1013 of the housing 101 having the level inspection device 17 corresponds to the horizontal border 20 of the display 2. The user inspects the inspection result of the level inspection device 17 for judging if the sensing module 10 is parallel with the horizontal border 20 of the display 2. The level inspection device 17 can be disposed at the fixing module 11 as well. The level inspection device 17 is disposed on the sidewall 1113 of the housing 111 in parallel with the horizontal level. The housing 111 also has a fourth opening 11134. The level inspection device 17 is disposed in the housing 111 and corresponds to the fourth opening 11134. The details will not be repeated here.
